XpressMail to Be Permanently Retired Thursday, Jan. 27, 2011

Because XpressMail is no longer supported by the vendor, Information Technology Services will retire it effective Thursday, Jan. 27, 2011. IT Services planned the XpressMail phase out over winter break for the convenience of students, faculty and staff, and recommends that XpressMail users begin the process of moving to UA Mail or another IMAP-capable e-mail application as soon as possible.

UA Mail is the university’s official web-based e-mail for non-Exchange users. Several features are available while logged into UA Mail, including MyDocs for file storage, UA Chat for communicating with university users and other contacts via Jabber, and Web&Apps for web hosting and statistical research. 

Instructions for exporting an XpressMail address book and importing it to UA Mail or other supported applications are online at uits.uark.edu/email/xpressmail.htm. For further assistance, contact the Help Desk at 575-2905.
